I Can Run Across the Earth

Disclaimer - though these songs were written by my daughter, who is currently seven years old, and she does perform them, you will not see her on my blog or on YouTube. We've decided as a family to keep our kids' images off of public media; we aren't interested in having stalkers or child pornographers sniffing around.

I know this may be a pipe dream, but my idea is that my friends (and perhaps others) online will help me create a great birthday surprise for my daughter by putting together their own versions of this song and posting those videos either here or on YouTube. My current goal is to have at least five different videos and then I can compile them into one that I would play for her on her birthday in June. I have embedded my YouTube version below so you can pick up the tune.

So here's how her current "main song" goes:

I can run across the earth
I can soar across the sky
I've always wanted to do it
I've always wanted to try

I'll be free some day, I know I will be free
I'll be free some day
